[He approached Rinji from behind and sat beside him on the bench.] Rinji: Like what... [Said with very little life clinging to his words.] Chris: Well, for one thing, you could do like I do and hock loogies onto passing seagulls. Man, you should see how mad they get! Rinji kept sitting and pianoing his claws against the table, his eyes closed now. Chris: Then there's always building random clay potholes on the ship to see who will step in one first. Chris: Or... or! We could very well go across Fringe, singing merry carrols while all snuggly warm in our coats and jackets, holding hands while we--- Rinji: You have some of the worst issues I have seen in all 9 of my lives... Chris: Whoa, you seriously have those? Chris: Well, you can't let good soda go to waste, so if you don't want to drink it. [He lifted the mug and started to drink] Rinji: Ummm that's not so--- Chris: Whoa! I suddenly know what One Piece is! It--- [Thud! Hit the floor completely unconcious] Rinji: MewhahahahahahahahahaHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!! Juuri: My lord, please forgive my intrusion. This man has sworn under his honor that he will not say a word until he has a chance to prove himself against you in battle. Snowbeard: Prove himself? Is that right? His skills are that of miscalculation, arrogance, and misguided judgement of his technique. I will not waste my precious time on such a galant upstart. If he will speak no more of the matter, then I suppose it is time to end his torment forever. Juuri: Who are you and why do you interrupt us with such insolence!? Snowbeard: Lower your katana, Juuri. She is of our allies, the Tiger-stripes. This did little to comfort Juuri, and as he sheathed his sword, he noticed that her eyes followed his movements with passive interest. Nikk: I heard about Ricky, and I came to see if it was true. Snowbeard: It is, little one. What is your name? Nikk: Miko Nikk, I joined the Tiger-Stripe Pirates some months ago. Snowbeard: [Nodded] I see. Forgive Juuri, his honor is worn on his sleeve. [Turned toward Juuri] You may leave us, speak to Gonzo, and if he speaks no more for us to hear, then you may kill him. Juuri: Yes, master. [Bowed once again, and then began to walk out of the chamber] Nikk: He will not get anything from Gonzo Lee. [This statement stopped Juuri quite well in his steps.] Juuri: What did you say? [Turned back toward Nikk] Snowbeard: What do you mean? Nikk: He won't get anything from Gonzo Lee, and it is entirely from lack of trying. Nikk: He is one of them. One of the traitors among us. He attacked Vice Admiral Polatsu along with a very large, powerful man who was strong enough to punch deep into pure steel. They attacked the marine while garbed in black, and did not clean up thoroughly behind himself. Juuri: You insolent little brat! How dare you accuse m--- Snowbeard: Juuri... [His voice boomed with a horrible sense of anger that worked itself straight down Juuri's spine.] Where did you say you were that night? The night the Admiral was attacked? Snowbeard: Was this why you volunteered your services to question our captive? If this is true, then I can only assume that you know of my daughter's current whereabouts! [He said, and his hand darted to Juuri's throat, instantly getting it into a grasp that couldn't be loosened by a crowbar] How far does your treachury go, Juuri-the-shameful?! When we found you starving, and bleeding from every limb of your body, was that thespianism?! Was that only the beginning of your destined turn-coat ways?! Was it your true destiny to be destroyed by the palm of my hands! You maggot-eating dog?! Tell me! TELL MEEEEE!!! Snowbeard: Molli... [He called as she appeared from the darkness.] Molli: Yes, my lord. [Bowing] Snowbeard: Take this miserable wretch to a prison chamber, and tell Wataru that he is unleashed onto Gonzo Lee. Tell him that our time is running very short. Tell him that he is to do whatever he can. Molli: At once.
